all whom it maf concern: f

a subject of the Czar of Russia, andresident of Pittsburgh, in the county of Allegheny band State of Pennsylvania, have linvented certain new and' 'seful Improvements in :Dispensing-Cabinets, of which the follow-- ',in isa specification. V

glhs invention relates to dispensing cabilo nets andthe invention has for its dominant ,object to provide a cabinet for containing sanitary toilet seat covers, in a manner, such as will permit the same to be removed singularly therefrom as desired.

.It is also an object of the invention to provide novel closure means for the cabinet, whereby, the same may be opened to permit the placing of the covers therewithin and then closed to obviate dust and disairange All of the foregoing together with` addi.- tional advantageous detailsand arrangements of parts of the preferred embodiment l of the invention wi bc clear from the contained,

panying drawings,'forming a part thereof, wherein said embodiment of the invention 'is illustrated for the purpose offacilitating a so full understanding of the present improve ments. V

In the drawings;

Figure 1 is a vertical section through the improved cabinet; srs 1` ig. 2 `is a horizontal section therethrough; and y Fig. 3 is a fragmentary horizontal sectionV showing the means for securing the removable side or 'closure of the cabinet in posiployed in all of the above described views -to indicate corresponding parts.

Referring now more particularly to the 46 several figures of the said drawings, there is provided a substantially' retangularly shaped cabinet or receptacle Vdesignate the rear wall of'which hooked shape extension 2, while the bottom 'a point above the lower extremity of the walls of the cabinet and comprises a shelf 3, a portion of which is offset and secured to the rear wall by suitable means, anda second shelf 4, the sides of 65 which are offset and secured to the adjacent `10, a plurality of slidable bolts 1'1, t

jacent extremities of which are hea ed' asr 'expansible coiled spring 13,l the d 1, is provided with aA sanitary covers, esignated (i may rest there.

upon to facilitate the engagin and removal thereof from the cabinet, sing as desired, Vertically disposed angle bars are secured to the forward portions of the side walls of `the receptacle and obviously, serve as guide ways for theadjacent portions of the covers 6, thus, retaining the saine in proper position to permit their engagement' with the bottoms of the receptacles.

The upper ends ofthe bars are beveled in order that scratching or tearing of a users hands when filling the receptacle will be prevented'. Curved angle bars 7 are arranged upon the receptacle side walls above the bars 7 and 'serve as supportin purpose of which will be preseny 'ap arent.

As shown in the Fig. 1, the top'ian front side of thereceptacle 1 is removable, the same comprising a strip of metal bent upon itself, ,tto permit the forming of Vthe top and-fioiit slde. portions of the said4 rely as at 9 and jects' below the belt 4 and carricsin brac ets eadat' 12 and have arranged therebetwen an iapposite convolutions of4 ,which are errang upon lugs `14 formed onthe heads 12; `@locks 1 5 are ixedly secured to the adjaeentportios of the'side Walls of the receptacle 1 and serve,

as 'ellicient keepers for the bolts venting the undue or accidental opening the removable front side.

To prevent lateral movement of the froi'it side of the metal stri 8, the forward poi'- tions of the reeeptae e sidewalls are extended and receivethe same therebetween.

Apertured ears 17. are'secured in spaced 11, thuis, prefportion of `the y adapted to be received within n the front side portion of the metal strip roi relation to the rear wall of the receptacle 1 by soldering or other fastening'inews,'com` ion mon to the art, and afford rneane 'whereby the dispensing eebinet may be' affixed tothe" d ebred support.

To place the sanita-ry cover 6 Within the reeptale, it is only necessary to remove the metal stri 8 therefrom by Withdrawing the slidab e bolts 11 from the block or keeper 15 and then/swinging the same upward to allow the disengagin'g of the offset portion 9 from the hooked upper extension 2 of the cabinet rear Wall.

Manfestly, the construction shown is capable of considerable modification and such modification as is within the scope of my claim, I consider Within the spirit of my invention.

I claim:

A dispensing cabinet, including a receptaole havinga, discharge opening formed -in the bottom thereof, Said bottom liavinga strip, a hooked extension. Vformed on the up-4 per extremity of the rear wall of the rece taele, vertically disposed article guide m Ambers arranged in the receptacle, the top and front sides of the receptacle being removable and eomprisin a fiexible strip of material having one en( offset adopted for engagement with the hooked eXtensomand slidable spring pressed looking bolts oarried on .the remaining extremltief` of the flexible strip engageable with the side Walls of the receptacle to retain the same in closed position.

ln testimony whereof, I affix my Signature hereto.
